IMPROVEMENT 1N cHURn-nAsHERs.

The Schedule referred to hi these Letters Patent and part of the same.

Toall whom it may concern:

Beit known'that I, FLOYD OGDEN, of Fisher-ville in the county ofJefferson and State of' Kentucky, have invented a new and usefulImprovement in Chiu-ns; and I do hereby declare that the following is afull, clear, and lexact description of the same, reference being had tothe accompanying drawing lbrming a part of this speeieation.

My invent-ion relates to chnrns; and consists in combining with abalanced valve, ot' unequal arca on the opposite sides of its fnlcruin,-a churn-dasher, con# Figure l is a vertical, and Figure-2, a horizontalsection ot' a churn exhibiting vmy improvement. A f

A is the churn-barrel;

B, the dasher;

C, the dasher-rod; and

F, the valve.

e is a perforated ring, having a ilange, d, thereon, extendingr to thesides of the barrel A.

structed substantially as hereinafter described.

F is a valve, hinged to a transverse fulcrum orpivot,

g, which is fastened to the sides of dasher.

t is a rigid curved bail, to connect dasher B and rod C. h is a ange, toprevent the valve from being pressed upwardly beyond a horizontal plane.

The valve F is constructed ofdifferent arcas and thicknesses on the twosides of its fnlcrum, so as to balancevthercon. v

The principle or inode of operation is as follows: In pressing thedasher down upon the cream, one

side et' the valve is caused, by the larger area on its.

sido of the fulcrnm, to received the greatest amount of pressure, andtoassume a horizontal position against the ange 7i. This compels thecream to move through flanges d l1., and bail/1', combinedas described,with the balanced metallic valve F, having unequal areason oppositesides of the pivot g, for the purpose specified. y
